The global food and beverage industry needs to be highly responsive to changing consumption patterns, local and global regulatory changes, new investment opportunities as well as hygiene and safety issues. New demands and retail formats have changed the way raw material is produced and procured, processed, packaged, shipped, and sold.

There are several stakeholders in the food and beverage industry; these include farmers, suppliers, manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers. Nearly half of the sales in the grocery retail sector can be attributed to supermarkets and hypermarkets. The other half is shared by independent stores, community convenience stores, discount outlets, and quick service stations.
